Bacon Cheddar Broccoli Salad

Happy Saturday! So sorry I’ve been MIA the past few days – to make up for it, I’m going to give you a recipe PLUS the hubs will also post his delayed cocktail Friday post! It’s 2-for-1 around here today! 🙂

Now, I know not everyone is a fan of broccoli, but if something’s going to make you enjoy it in the slightest – this has GOT to be the dish. Smothered with salty crispy bacon, freshly shredded cheddar cheese, onion (you can hold the onion if you’re not a fan), and a sweet and tangy dressing. YUM.

This recipe is something my mom has made for YEARS. I’m sure many of you have a recipe similar recipe to it! It’s one of those easy-peasy throw together things. Perfect for a barbecue side dish, a potluck, or to just eat by itself when your hubby is working late (not that I’ve done THAT before…) 😉

Anyhow, I know summer is almost over, and barbecues are phasing out… so get on it – make this dish before it’s too late!

Yummmmm! Hubs and I are trying to lose weight and have been following low-carb, minus the sugar in this recipe (which I could easily substitute with Splenda) and we have a winner…I am totally making this. Thanks for the inspiration!
